CVE-2026-57789Network attack vector

Authenticated local file inclusion via uncontrolled filename

Published Jul 13, 2026 · Updated Jul 13, 2026

Local file inclusion in JWSThemes Aqua 5.1.2 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to load local PHP files via crafted input. The published record identifies an improperly controlled filename passed to PHP include or require operations but discloses no affected file, parameter, or code path. Contributor-level access and high-complexity conditions are required; successful inclusion can expose file output or execute PHP already present on the server.
